Retailer Blockbuster has signalled its growing intention in the games space by striking its first DLC exclusivity deal.

Thanks to an agreement with EA, those who pre-order Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 with the chain will receive two bonus golfer foursome downloads.

The first will allow gamers to play with Manchester Utd’s Wayne Rooney, Man City’s James Milner, Arsenal’s Theo Walcott and Chelsea’s Petr Cech. The second offers US sports stars including Sugar Ray Leonard.

“This is the start of an exciting year for Blockbuster customers,” Blockbuster’s head of games James Morton stated.

“We will continue to provide customers with unbeatable content which no-one else can offer and are delighted to be able to reveal the pre-order extras that will be available with Tiger Woods PGA Tour through our continued relationship with EA.”
